 AI had quickly become the worldâs hottest topic, and that was the problem. With endless conferences, experts, and âthought leaders,â the audience was oversaturated, skeptical, and hard to impress.

 Halloween may be fun for children, but itâs also one of the most dangerous nights of the year for pedestrians. Studies show that the number of traffic accidents involving children is significantly higher on Halloween than on an average evening.

That combination makes Halloween a high-risk night for accidents that could easily be prevented with a simple reminder: Watch out for the little monsters. VIEW THE 3 CONCEPTS

 Changi isnât just a transit hub. Itâs a vital connector between East and West that has redefined what an airport can be. But for ANZ travellers, Changi isnât the fastest route to Europe, the Middle East, or the Americas. That forces a choice: speed, or stopping at Changi.
